23
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 2: with our live Dog section, which people out there, you

24
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 2: made a lot of cash a lot of coin if

25
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 2: you tailed the Old Weave last week because ching four

26
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 2: of our official picks hit outright last week Binghamton, Pepperdine,

27
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 2: Loyal and Merrymount in Monmouth all one outright as around

28
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: six to seven point dogs, all of them so pretty

29
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: good payday. Hey, if you parlay them, you could be

30
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: the newest Twitter sensation from the sportsbooks tweeting out there

31
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: big parlays you never know where. But for this week, guys,

32
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: let's start off with a couple of games on Wednesday

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: and Thursday selections I've curated for the group here considerations,

34
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: and then get to a couple of year suggestions as well,

35
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 2: starting with Xavier at Marquette on Wednesday. Xavier a six

36
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: point dog per kem pom. Now, I know Marquette jim

37
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: is a tough place to play, but Xavier is a

38
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 2: tough team and they don't often catch six points, especially

39
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 2: in this year's Big East.

40
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: Do you think they have a chance? Nobody comes into

41
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: the five serve, Hi, come on, look what having a

42
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: Baylor a while back, now there's a chance. But no

43
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: Fremantle is a problem in Matthew. As you pointed out

44
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: Astuteley in our internal group chat, sou Let Boom might

45
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: be a little bit limited here, big time guard for Xavier,

46
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 1: and if he is not effective, Xavier is not really effective,

47
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: they kind of go as he goes. As much as

48
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: I love my guy Nungee, my doppelganger, my seven foot

49
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 1: look alike, I think this is gonna be Marquette's game

50
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do it. Can't

51
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: pull the trigger.

52
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 2: Here, yeah, and even in Boom, here comes, the boom

53
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: does not come to this game as from a can.

54
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 2: This screams over to me. Obviously, Ken Palm will have

55
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: that price in. It's currently protected at one hundred and

56
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: sixty eight. My goodness. First matchup was not losing, but

57
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: only played the sixty nine possessions and one hundred and

58
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: seventies of one hundred and fifty six. I can't do

59
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: math carry the one.

60
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that game died.

61
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 2: It was like spiral tag and it's just right, okay,

62
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 2: I like you over here. I think I'll probably be

63
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 2: in the clouds. But I think this is an absolute

64
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 2: up and down. Xavier can't guard anybody in the printer,

65
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: that's the problem. And Markette is like as good as

66
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 2: anyone in the country at beating you with all five

67
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 2: guys from the printer.

68
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: That's their whole m.

69
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: Indeed, they are a game here. I do like Fellas,

70
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 2: which I am going to take Drake at Northern Iowa. Now,

71
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: the Panthers have lost five straight, but they're tough at

72
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: home and Matt their last game againstraight. Their only other

73
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 2: game this season, it was a double ot loss at Drake.

74
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: I think you and I.

75
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 2: Returns the favor here. It gets back on the winning

76
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: path and beats Strake on Wednesday. I can't get there.

77
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: I've been kind of out on this store on the Iowa

78
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: team all year. I still stunned that they are sitting

79
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 2: where they are in conference. But I guess they've dropped

80
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: the last five right, eight and eight. As you've alluded to, their.

81
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: Schedule has gotten a lot tougher and a lot tougher.

82
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: It's a young team Kai, and it's a team that

83
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: I think has the hit a freshman wall written all

84
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 2: over it. And I just think Drake's better. And I

85
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: think they're all get pissed off about that that first

86
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: go round. So I know they won that game doublet

87
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 2: but I think they're like, Okay, we're not going to

88
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: take this team lightly. We know we're the elder States

89
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,559
Speaker 2: are in the room, but still are in state rival

90
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 2: and we're gonna put the put the hurt and on gym.

91
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 2: So I like Drake here. I'm sorry, Lame.

92
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: I like Drake two. I wonder if they have just

93
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: kind of righted the ship. At beginning of the year,

94
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: they were kind of the clear favorite, this is the

95
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: best team in the valley and who's going to finish second?

96
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: But man last two games, they have been a juggernaut.

97
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: Blue Lot Murray State by twenty four, Southern Illinois by

98
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: twenty three, two teams that were like in the top

99
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: half of the standings kind of chasing Drake and that

100
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: really shows I think where the level has gotten. Two

101
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: with them, they had Tucker DeVries miss the one game,

102
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: then they won two straight double overtime games, including that

103
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: one Kai mentioned against Northern Iowa, and then the last

104
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: two just really really ripped off awesome performances. So I'm

105
00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,799
Speaker 1: I'm leaning Drake as well. Kai.

106
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 2: Interesting fact, in his five years, Darrin Breeze has only

107
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 2: swept Northern Iowa one time, that was in twenty twenty one.

108
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 2: Every of the year has been split. Maybe not that's

109
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: that interesting, but I thought it was next game Saint

110
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: Jo's at Duquine about an eight point dog is the

111
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: Saint Jose Hawks, And I'll tell you what I'm taking

112
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: this one as well. Why Saint Jose has been playing

113
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 2: very very well recently. They are seven and two in

114
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: their last nine games. But Jim, the question is Casper

115
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 2: Klaccic is he going to play for Saint Jose's game.

116
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 2: He is quite important, he's missed the last few.

117
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: I'm in Either way, I think even if Classic's not

118
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: out there, I like the way Jose is trending. They've

119
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: got a lot more playmaking this year. They seem a

120
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: little lot more cohesive to last year. It was very

121
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: much just one man, Jordan Hall runs the show and

122
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: the other guys kind of have to exist around him,

123
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: live in his orbit. This year it's more democratic, has

124
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 1: more sorted out. Reynolds and Greer have become kind of

125
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: two dual ball handlers. And I do like Dukane Matthew

126
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: that's actually playing fairly well also. But I think there's

127
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 1: enough variance here. Saint Jose is trending up enough that

128
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: I'll ride with Billy Lang maybe the last time I

129
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: ever say that in my life.

130
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 2: Hapital A v variants. Jim Hazel Metrics great metric of

131
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 2: consistency KAI teams that perform similar game to gamers. A

132
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 2: team that are Jec Glinn Hyde Ducaine three hundred and

133
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 2: fifty fifth inconsistency, which completely adds up to me. Jim,

134
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: I thought they were going to be kind of a

135
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: rocket ship once they got McGriff back, but then they've

136
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: had some really odd losses, so many of which have

137
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 2: not been very competitive. I kind of like the Saint

138
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 2: Jose angle here. I don't like the Saint Joe's team

139
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 2: that much. Now they're playing better, But from a moneyline perspective,

140
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 2: if you like Saint Jose, I think it's a pretty

141
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 2: good wager, just with how up and down this Duke's

142
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 2: team is. Yeah, their guard play, Santos gard play can

143
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: be very good, very good when they are at their.

144
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: At their peak.

145
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 2: On Thursday, guys, I have three more options for you.

146
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 2: This one's a little tongue in cheek, but let's discuss

147
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,799
Speaker 2: Gonzaga at Loyle and Marymount Lmu plus six home dogs.

148
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: Who says no to a season and sweep? Jim, you

149
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 2: say no?

150
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: I I tried to look up the last time a

151
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: non Saint Mary's or BYU team swept Gonzaga and the

152
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: search said, what are you doing? Go away? What do

153
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: you really think this has happened to more on? Yeah,

154
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: I don't think it has. Yeah, so I don't know

155
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: that I can get on board. LMU has been really,

156
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: really feisty though, and they went at Kenzagon. I think

157
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: get him back home. They had to come from behind

158
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: victory against Saint Mary's last Thursday. They're capable. This spread's

159
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: only six though that I fear angry Gonzaga at the

160
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: stage also with a title in their sights. They're trying

161
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: to catch Saint Mary's for atop the WCC.

162
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'll use been awesome, like to take

163
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 2: away two games after the Pepperdine blowout, we'll come out

164
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: of four game one streaks like they've done really nothing wrong.

165
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: But now I'm not gonna take this.

166
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

167
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 2: Canzaga has win this game. There's no way they lose

168
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: this game. I just didn't only this gam LMU is

169
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 2: the only team ever in the WCC to be b YU,

170
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 2: Canzaga and Saint Mary's in the same year. There's only

171
00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 2: seven teams. I can really do that because the other

172
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 2: three don't count, but still interesting. Next game here, the

173
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 2: a Sun has a two way tie right now at

174
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: the top, which is a bit surprising. Liberty in Kinnessaw State.

175
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 2: Kennesau State is hosting Liberty in this game. It's their

176
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: only matchup of the season, and ken State is a

177
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 2: five point home dog. It's gonna be a tough battle.

178
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 2: Matthew and I think we've said on this podcast before

179
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 2: asun home is nuts this season one of the best

180
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 2: in the country in terms of home teams covering and

181
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 2: winning out right. Do you like the Owls against the Flames.

182
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 2: Owls can shoot, supposed to beat Liberty with the long ball,

183
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: or so they say. The pack line defense here, that's

184
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 2: how you soften it up.

185
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

186
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 2: I stall watch Kannesaw make threes from twenty five feet

187
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: nowt against my Indiana Hoosiers. It seemed to absolutely stroke

188
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 2: at multiple guys that can make shots. How you mentioned

189
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: the home dominance of a Sun teams kind of a

190
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: weird geographically placed conference. I don't think they beat Liberty,

191
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 2: but man, I think it's awfully competitive here. Liberty is

192
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 2: just such a tough team to fade.

193
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: I disavowed this. I have Liberty to win the a

194
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: Sun futures, so I need my Flames to win this game.

195
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: A little bit of a future cash waged on that. Matt,

196
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: you mentioned Kennesav being able to shoot over the top, Well,

197
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: Liberty can too. That's exactly what they want to do.

198
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 1: Fourth in the country in three point at tenth rate.

199
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: Kennesaw pretty compact defense, more or less content to let

200
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: you shoot over the top. I kind of think Liberty

201
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: wins a shootout. They've got the best player on the

202
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: floor in the gee, probably the player of the year

203
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: in that conference. I can't get their kai and maybe

204
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: there's some personal bias in that, but I'm not going

205
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: to officially register this one.

206
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: I have fun stat here a soun number one conference

207
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 2: in three point at tenth rate. Obviously Liberty is a

208
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: big part of that. But interesting that we always say, oh,

209
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 2: the way to be liberty is you have to shoot

210
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: three against the pack. Clients like Lear in the conference

211
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 2: that shoots the most, and they're actually the eleventh of

212
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 2: thirty two conferences in three point percentage. There is still

213
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 2: dominating those people, so like, clearly they are I mean

214
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 2: to that stupid cliche ERRAI if I just puted sorry.

215
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 1: There's more. There's more angles.

216
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 2: You have to take liberty from, more swords in the

217
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 2: barrel if you will feel about the last option here

218
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 2: for me fellas, which I am taking as well. Western

219
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 2: Kentucky plus six per Ken Pump at Charlotte on Thursday.

220
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: Now.

221
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 2: They lost to Charlotte by four in the first game.

222
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 2: They have won three straight since then, and Matt in

223
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: that first matchup between Charlotte and Western Kentucky, Jamari and

224
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 2: Sharp did not play. Obviously a pretty huge factor here

225
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 2: in rick Stansbury. We tend to like a lot more

226
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: as a dog. Yeah, it's a team that has a

227
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 2: ton of talent and that I think is just engaged

228
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 2: when they're playing talent that's of like or better. And

229
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 2: they've also had a week off they played last Thursday.

230
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 2: That might matter at this point of the season where

231
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: I think you're starting to feel some weary legs, the

232
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,319
Speaker 2: dog days of conference play up set in. So I

233
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 2: kind of think they win this game. And it's annoying

234
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 2: because as a team I was looking to back all

235
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 2: year and I lost a lot of money early. I

236
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,359
Speaker 2: gave up on them too late. Maybe now I stubbornly

237
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 2: come back in on the Bioo bandwagon.

238
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: Jimbo, I definitely lean this way with you guys. WK

239
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: you much much better as a dog. As Kay said,

240
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: it's just this total Stansbury tradition. The reason I'm not

241
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 1: going to officially lock it in just because hey, this

242
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: is another pack line team in Charlotte with Tony Bennett

243
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: coaching tree and WK you does not have Luke Frampton.

244
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: He is out, So I believe Torney cl He's done

245
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,719
Speaker 1: for the year best shooter, best premier shooter by far.

246
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: On that roster. They're starting to get a little bit

247
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 1: more from Dante Allen. He is a fully capable three

248
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: point shooter. Step in, I mean formerly of Kentucky. I

249
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: think a lot of people probably remember him from there.

250
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: But with no Frampton, Kai, I'm not going to go

251
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: all the way there and take it. I would definitely

252
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: bet WKU to cover though, love it.

253
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 2: I got more options guys on Thursday, possibly here, Jim,

254
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 2: you want to cover these two?

255
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Southeastern Louisiana plus eight at Northwestern State. Northwestern State's

256
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: kind of a matt. I wonder where they rank in

257
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: that consistency rating if you still have it up, because

258
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: they've had some really really awesome efforts, had some questionable

259
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 1: losses as well. Talented team basically we call him Missouri

260
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: State South because their coach was an assistant there and

261
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: they brought a few transfers with them, So tempted by

262
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: SILA and then I'm also going to take Delaware plus

263
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: seven at Towson. Kay, we kind of talked about last

264
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: night in our court chat, how Tawson is starting to

265
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: sink a little bit, just not up to the same

266
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: standard they were last year in Delaware getting a little

267
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: bit healthier, Gotjied Davis back last game. I think they've

268
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: got a chance to win on the road at Towson. Matt,

269
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 1: did you find us some data.

270
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 2: Three hundred and fifteenth Jimbo? So, yes, they are not

271
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,839
Speaker 2: that consistent. They are a lot better at home. I

272
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 2: think you mentioned this in Paslemetric. God, what a great

273
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 2: site create data Guru two hundred and eighty ninth, And

274
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 2: they're away from home metrics, So that ten that plays

275
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 2: better at home doesn't play as well on the road. Unfortunately,

276
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 2: Northwestern State is at home and then is at home here.

277
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 2: So that's why I disavow Jimbo's take care. Sorry, they're

278
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 2: also number two overall in the country, an ATS record

279
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 2: at Northwestern State seventeen and seven. Not a bad ATS team.

280
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: I do like the Delaware play though, Jim Tousand losing

281
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: to Drexel and William and Mary back to back games.

282
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 2: Drexel was short handed, it was on the road both games,

283
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 2: but still maybe a sign that Towsand's just kind of

284
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 2: fallen down the well here.

285
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: I will also mentioned William and Mary was super short

286
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: handed too, missing like three and a half starters. Yeah,

287
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 1: Thowsand's really in.

288
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 2: Trouble right now. This is a problem. Yeah, Wow, Pat scary.

289
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: What are you doing? Man? Get it together?

290
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 2: All right, fellas to recap, I'm taking Western Kentucky, Saint

291
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 2: Joe's and Northern Iowa from the Live Dog section.

292
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: Jim, who do you got joining you with Saint Joseph?

293
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: Saint jose and Delaware. Those are my two official ones,

294
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 1: not actually going to lock in Southeastern Louisiana.

295
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: And I'm only taking the tops because we stupidly beat

296
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 2: our chest at the undefeated record last weekend. So I'm

297
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: trying to hedge the inevitable pendulum swing right back to

298
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 2: the nutsack here all Yes, the old pendulum to the nutsack.

299
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: Matthew Cox, all right, next section, blowout City. Hey, last

300
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: week did pretty well in the section, guys. We called

301
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 2: two out of three blowouts correctly. Houston took down Tulsa

302
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 2: by thirty eight points. Oh my goodness. Just not a

303
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 2: good matchup for Tulsa. There, Ucla fell short. They beat

304
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 2: the Beavers by fifteen. I don't think that covered the

305
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 2: actual spread. It did push the Kim Pomp spread discussed

306
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: half credit for US there, I guess, and an Arizona

307
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 2: they beat Cal by twenty three. No problem for the

308
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: Wildcats this week, guys. I got one game on Wednesday

309
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 2: and one game on Thursday.

310
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: Matt.

311
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 2: On Wednesday, I'm going with Virginia minus sixteen.

312
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: Per Kim Pomp.

313
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: At Louisville, it just feels like a classic crock Pot

314
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: City type of game against the Cardinals. We know Louisville

315
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 2: is terrible this year and they can't really shoot, and

316
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 2: that's a problem against the pack line. It's a major problem. Yeah,

317
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 2: at this point, it's like how low can Louisville go?

318
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 2: I mean they can keep going lower for sure. It's

319
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 2: just I like your Thursday one more Kai, So I'll

320
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 2: hold for my stronger takes until I Adorge the next one. Jim,

321
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 2: are you taking the Who's on the Road?

322
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: Yeah? Probably. I think Louisville's really really bad. And they

323
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: had their their decent stretch where they got to win

324
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: or Jeorge attack and it was like, Okay, hey, maybe

325
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: they're trending up since then not overly competitive, and that's

326
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: just what Virginia does. They just slowly but surely destroy you.

327
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: And that's a team. If you can't shoot over the top,

328
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: you're in trouble. And Louisville can't shoot, it's LLS or nobody.

329
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: And I think they're going to have some real problems

330
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: with that pack line.

331
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: Matt. On Thursday, the game you said you liked better,

332
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 2: Hampton is going to Hofstra. Hofstra is going to be

333
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 2: laying twenty per kim pum.

334
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: It might even be higher.

335
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 2: In the actual market, Matt. Hawstra is eight to zer

336
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 2: against the spread their last eight games.

337
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: Yikes.

338
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 2: Did they just keep on rolling here?

339
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah?

340
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 2: Because Hampton just played a Saturday at Charleston. Actually we're

341
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: kind of competitive in that game by Hampton standards. And

342
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 2: then they almost mounted an unreal comeback against Elon on Monday.

343
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 2: So that's their third game already this week, and they

344
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 2: have Drexel looming over the weekend. So sort of a

345
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,359
Speaker 2: weird spot here where I think they kind of exhausted

346
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: their energy in those last two games, and I think

347
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 2: Affer just put them to better real quickly here and

348
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 2: they roll over like all right, you know that was

349
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 2: a fun little two game stretch where we played better.

350
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 2: Let's get ready for Drexel over the weekend, and they

351
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 2: lose by thirty.

352
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels like both Hofstra and Charleston are trending

353
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: way up and as asserting their dominance before the conference tournament.

354
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: Last couple of games for Charleston went by thirty six, thirteen,

355
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: thirty two seven. Seen Host, Like you said, guy has

356
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: been rolling against the number two. I would lean towards

357
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: the pride there.

358
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 2: Worth noting game one Hostra led by as many as

359
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 2: nineteen points. They won by sixteen on the road at Hampton.

360
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: Seems like an okay, okay, bet going the other.

361
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: Way, all right.

362
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,280

395
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 1: Of the week. Oh I could feel it. Let's do it.

396
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 2: Two games on Wednesday, one game on Thursday. I'm starting

397
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 2: the SEC one of the best games of the season.

398
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 2: I would say it's Alabama at Tennessee Tennessee minus two

399
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 2: per ken Pum might surprise some people out there, given

400
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 2: Alabama has a big fat number one next to its

401
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 2: name in the AP pole but Jane, we don't care

402
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 2: about the ap pole. And frankly, this spot is pretty

403
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 2: huge for Tennessee, who's lost three out of four, lost

404
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 2: two straight. Who do you like in this game?

405
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 1: The line sleuths are going to be all over Tennessee

406
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: here because what the number one team is an underdog

407
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: against a team that's lost two straight. That's impossible. So

408
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: a lot of people I think will be betting Tennessee.

409
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: I like Bama. The one thing that does scare me

410
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: is the spot for Tennessee potential bi low lost two

411
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: straight buzzer beaters. I don't think that takes the wind

412
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: out of their sales. I think that motivates them. The

413
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 1: issue for them is injuries. If Josiah Jordan James and

414
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: Julian Phillips are both out, Matt those are there like

415
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: Jackson ball trade Swiss army knife type players. Take both

416
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: of them out of the lineup against Alabama, who has

417
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: a billion of them, I think the tie can wear

418
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: him down with depth. I think they're a worthy number

419
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: one team, and if you can get the short handed balls,

420
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: I'm probably going to lean towards the tide.

421
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: Yeah partly wants to take Tennessee heere, but I think

422
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 2: the injuries keeps me away Jimmy right, like just out

423
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: of Jordan James All. I mean, they lost the last

424
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 2: game without him against the Miszoo. All three of their

425
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 2: other SEC losses, he was a non factor, and I

426
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 2: think he was hobbled in the Vanderbilt game and somewhat

427
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 2: in the Florida game. I think he's so important, Like

428
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 2: he's there one of the best shooters, he's a defensive

429
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 2: linebacker and so originally he's actually a really good passer too.

430
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 2: Like this team doesn't really have a lot of creation.

431
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 2: It's kind of the knock on them, right, they're overly

432
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 2: stuck in the mud and how they overly execute. But

433
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 2: he's kind of a guy that can get in the

434
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 2: lane and now like a break down the drill guy.

435
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: He's a good passer.

436
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 2: I just think he adds lots to the table that

437
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 2: this team badly needs. And you can just look at

438
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 2: the splits with them without him and Phillips. I mean

439
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 2: he's been an absolute freak this year too, not touching

440
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 2: tennessee the ton foot poll cli if those guys are out,

441
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 2: that's allesome. Yeah, I definitely wait and see on the

442
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 2: personnel there for me, if it's all healthy, ideallying towards

443
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 2: Tennessee in this game, I'm just a great spot.

444
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: I'll mention. On the other side of the personnel, Charles

445
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 1: Bettiaco sustained a minor knee injury, they're saying, and he

446
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: is day to day. For Alabama, They've got a ton

447
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 1: of depth. They'll play a lot more Clowney and Gurley

448
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: in the paint. I think that's okay, But Bettiaco is

449
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 1: a beast and it would be a great option against

450
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: mister Plovsych in the lane.

451
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 2: Yes, the rebounding crashing of Tennessee. Next game on Wednesday,

452
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 2: TCU at Iowa State.

453
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: It's a big.

454
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 2: Twelve matchup the Clones favored by four per Kimpom at

455
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 2: Hilton Arena. The Clones have lost four of five and

456
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 2: actually just dropped a game at Hilton to Okloma State.

457
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 2: A bit surprising, but matt TCU also has lost three straight,

458
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 2: also four of five. They've been missing Mike Miles, their

459
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 2: point guard, quite dearly. There's a lot of tournament seed

460
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 2: implications here with both teams kind of wavering both in

461
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 2: the middle five four seeds, six seed conversation as a reminder,

462
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 2: Iowa State beat TCU at TCU earlier this season, beat

463
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: him by two. Is a close game. Who do you

464
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 2: like in this one? Yeah, tough to back TCU with

465
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 2: the injuries they're dealing with here. I can't believe they've

466
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 2: actually shot worse from three in conference play than they

467
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 2: did in non conference. I think it was kind of like,

468
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 2: this team can't shoot, but they can't be a twenty

469
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 2: seven percent three point shooting team. Candid, It's like, oh, well, no,

470
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 2: they actually can't. It's what they're shooting so far on

471
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 2: a pretty hardy sample size. But Dixon good coach. You know,

472
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,199
Speaker 2: transition get to the rim. Iowa State's tough to do

473
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 2: that though against Man. I know even without Ward that

474
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 2: they're still pretty form well at the rim, and I

475
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 2: would lean their way.

476
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: Jim, Yeah, the spot with the Clones is kind of concerning.

477
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: It's hard to imagine them losing too straight At Hilton.

478
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: It's just such a great atmosphere gives them a big boost.

479
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,360
Speaker 1: But there's a chance Mike Miles returns here. He apparently

480
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: looked really good in practice today tuesdays we record this

481
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 1: and has been practicing a little bit. I think they're

482
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: just trying to make sure he is fully healthy before

483
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: they bring him back. They know they're gonna make the tournament.

484
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: They're going to have like somewhere between the four and

485
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,199
Speaker 1: a six seed. Probably not worth rushing him back, but

486
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: if he's good to go here, that's huge against the

487
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: ball pressure of Iowa State trying to force a bunch

488
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: of turnovers. We bring back your best point guard. That's

489
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,360
Speaker 1: very significant. So kaya Miles is in a might lean TCU,

490
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 1: although there could be some rust for him and trying

491
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: to get confidence back in that knee after the hyper extension. Yeah, definitely.

492
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: You never know if he's going to be fully one

493
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 2: hundred percent right right out of the gate, if he's

494
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 2: going to play full full time. Yeah, this is a

495
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 2: tough spread if it's for you know, TCU has been

496
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 2: scrappy without him, but gosh, hard to believe. Ioway stay

497
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 2: dropping two straight at Hilton. I probably towards the Clones

498
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 2: got to the head Thursday, A big ten matchup Perdue

499
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 2: on the road at Maryland. Perdue minus one a road

500
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 2: favorite here, Jim Now Maryland the Terps, they've they've won

501
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: five of six. They're ten and four against the spread.

502
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 2: At home this year, and Purdue's lost two of three.

503
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 2: Both games were on the road, clearly not as formidable

504
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 2: as they are at mac Arena. Who do you like

505
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 2: in this one?

506
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, the first meeting Maryland kind of gave him hell

507
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: at mac Arena too, three point final, really really low scoring,

508
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: fifty eight fifty five. Dye had a big game, what

509
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: do you know? But Maryland did a nice job in

510
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: negating pretty much everybody else. And that's what you have

511
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 1: to do against Purdue. That's what Northwestern did. Second half

512
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 1: against Northwestern, I believe Purdue was like two of thirteen

513
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: from three and had twelve turnovers, Like just really really bad. Matt.

514
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 1: We talked early in the season like these are still

515
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: freshman guards playing road games in Big Ten environments. And

516
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: while we liked Smith and Lawyer, they were poor against Northwestern.

517
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: And if this is going to be as hostile as

518
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: any environment in the Big Ten, Maryland's been great there.

519
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 1: I think I'm probably leaning towards Purdue, but I am

520
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: spooked by the potential for a big, big Maryland effort

521
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: and someone to sit this one out.

522
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, all Maryland's done is won and cover

523
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 2: at home. They're sort of the beacon of this dominant

524
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 2: home ats straight that all the big ten teams are on.

525
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 2: Just be Penn State. They squeaked out a cover in

526
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 2: Pence State was exactly a dominating performance. But Indiana before

527
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 2: that by eleven, Nebraska by nineteen, wisconstant by eighteen, Michigan

528
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 2: by six, Ohio State by seven back. Ohio State wasn't

529
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: a complete dumpster. So I mean, yeah, fae the terps

530
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 2: at home at your own risk. I do fear four

531
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 2: Perdue because while they can dominate the land, there is

532
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 2: that kind of chess match with the space and versatility

533
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 2: that Maryland offers. On the other end, I think we're

534
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 2: starting to see the vulnerability and mortalness, if that's a

535
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 2: word of produce guards, kay, I just think that.

536
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

537
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 2: While I like the freshman Smith and Layer, they've been

538
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: really solid, they were never that heralded as like dominant

539
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 2: you know stars right away. They've just been kind of

540
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 2: uplifted by Edie's gravitational pull inside, and we're starting to

541
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 2: see maybe some cracks and orders. That's my worry.

542
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: Aw I love Smith and Lawyer.

543
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,959
Speaker 2: I think they're awesome, certainly prone to some mistakes, as

544
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 2: most freshmen are, but for the most part, they've been

545
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 2: awesome this season, beyond their years. I would say on

546
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: the court, I think Eddie's gonna smash Maryland inside. He

547
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 2: did the first game twenty four and sixteen. I mean,

548
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 2: he's do that against everybody. And it was a close

549
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 2: game that first game. The shooting was discussing Maryland three

550
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 2: for twenty one from three Perdue two for thirteen. Hopefully

551
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,239
Speaker 2: we get a bit more or pleasing aesthetic game in

552
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 2: this one. I think towards Purdue, despite Maryland at home,

553
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 2: I think they're a lot better team. I think they

554
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: get off the schneid. Here mid major games of the week, Well,

555
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 2: we talked Gonzaga lm U a little bit, we talked

556
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 2: Liberty Kennesaw a little bit. Let's talk about three other

557
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 2: games really quick here on Wednesday. In the Big West,

558
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 2: you see Irvine goes See. You see Santa Barbara, the Babs,

559
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: the Gauchos favored by three for kim Pom Matt. Both

560
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,679
Speaker 2: these teams are top one hundred right now in kem Pom.

561
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 2: They're the class of the Big West. Every single season.

562
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 2: Santa Barbara won Game one by eight points at UCI.

563
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 2: What do you think about this. I'm just looking at

564
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 2: the return of Kai Sye's name for his place in

565
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 2: your loving germ accent bans Wickton Pie's been back for

566
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 2: two games, played only eighteen and twelve minutes, respectively, but

567
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 2: ten points in twelve minutes, nine points in eighteen minutes,

568
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 2: he matters.

569
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 1: Quite a bit.

570
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,120
Speaker 2: I know they squeaked by cal Pali, but I think

571
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 2: they look like the dominant team to follow up in

572
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,199
Speaker 2: his second game back, I think he's the key in

573
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 2: this one. I like the anti erch and we always

574
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 2: said that there's a rule that we told ourselves. I

575
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 2: know you've a bannoned this rule, but I stick to it.

576
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 2: When you see Rvine plays, you see Santa Barbara, I

577
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 2: always take Irvine. There's that one year last season where

578
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 2: is the exception of that rule. But I generally trust

579
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 2: Russell Turnaboar that I trust show pass Neck, So.

580
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: There is the exception is carried into this year. Though

581
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: you see Santa Barbara one by eight at Irvine on

582
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: the road. Mister Lichton did not play in that game,

583
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: and neither did Matt your boy, Josh, Pierre Louis or

584
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 1: Santa Barbara. So two key guys missing from that one.

585
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: This is a blue out in Santa Barbara. They're advertising

586
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 1: there's gonna be one thousand blue shirts for students, like

587
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: they are playing up the nature of this game as

588
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: they should. It's basically for the title. Santa Barbara wins,

589
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: they'll really be the prohibitive favorite. Two games up on

590
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 1: Irvine with a sweep over them, looking like the class

591
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: of that conference. That does make me a little concerned.

592
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're good enough to run away

593
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: with this league, but KAI dueling the Gauchos should be

594
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: a half court game, which suits because they don't have

595
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: a lot of depth UCSB, but they're starting five is

596
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: the best in the league, and as long as you

597
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: don't get a super hot shooting game from Irvine, which

598
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 1: they have been prone to do this year. I like

599
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: the Gauchos.

600
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 2: I like the Gauchos as well. And the wise words

601
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 2: of Tobias fi and K I blew myself. I'm afraid

602
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 2: I just blew myself.

603
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 1: It's got to be a better way to say that,

604
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: I blew myself. I blew out yourself in Barbara.

605
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 2: Next game, so con you U and C Greensboro at

606
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 2: Samford Sanford minus one here. Both teams are tied right

607
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 2: now in first place, with Furman at twelve and two

608
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 2: atop the SoCon gym. Maybe a little bit surprising, especially

609
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 2: Samford and Greensboro's been excellent as of late. Do you

610
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: have a preference in this game?

611
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: I think guy Lean Greensboro. I know they're on the road,

612
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: but Samford hasn't been the same kind of team I

613
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: expected them to be. I thought they'd be up and

614
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,439
Speaker 1: down use their depth. Play through Quest Glover now that

615
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: he's back, big time transfer formerly of Florida. He was

616
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: a prolific scorer last year. Then they added Parum from

617
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. It's like, okay, yeah, this team is going

618
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 1: to be lethal offensively, and what they are, they're not

619
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: playing that fast defensively. They've slowed things down a bit

620
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 1: mixed in some zones because I don't think they're very

621
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: good on the ball with Parham and Glover to really

622
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: small guards, and Greensboro's defense is so so good in

623
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: the half court. So Matt, if this game is actually

624
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 1: a little bit slower, it really really favors Greensboro and

625
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: their physicality. The Langleys have both been playing well in

626
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 1: the back court, So I think I like the Spartans

627
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 1: on the road.

628
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 2: I don't like fade Stanford at home. One of the

629
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 2: better home court environments in the country, but their home

630
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,959
Speaker 2: dominance hasn't really been all that jaw dropping. I mean,

631
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 2: they squeaked by a Citadel by six. They beat East

632
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 2: Tennessee State, who is I don't know. I guess that

633
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 2: was an okay win by eleven, So I guess I

634
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 2: shouldn't be as afraid to back you and C Greensboro

635
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 2: on the road. And I do you think that physicality

636
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 2: will travel well against Stanford who has been playing a bigger,

637
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 2: more physical lineup. Jim, you mentioned not playing that fast,

638
00:28:56,080 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 2: not all guard and parhum in Glover Orient and they

639
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 2: actually have some legit size, So yeah, matches up with them.

640
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 2: Think they actually steal us went on the road. And

641
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 2: this race in the Sokon gets a little more dicey

642
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 2: by the day, although I think Perman is still the

643
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 2: top dogs. Like Yeah, Greensboro's defense has been the best

644
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 2: in the SoCon number one and turnover rate number one,

645
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 2: in effective field goal percentage number one and three point

646
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: and two point percentage number one and steel rate and

647
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 2: number one in the best stat of all free throw

648
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 2: percentage defense. Yep, that's right. They're really good at making

649
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: teams missing the free throw line often overlook part Again.

650
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 2: I'm skipping ahead real quick to Friday, because I do

651
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 2: want to talk about this IVY matchup, which is very

652
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 2: important for the IVY Tournament because the IVY Tournament allows

653
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 2: only four teams to play. Both these teams safely in there.

654
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 2: Right now Penn is Yale at Penn. Yale minus two

655
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 2: on the road at pin Jim. Penn is only one

656
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 2: game back a first place. Right now, Yale is tied

657
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 2: in first with Princeton. Penn has won five straight. They're

658
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 2: finally playing up to expectations. I think a lot of

659
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 2: us thought they would win this league this season, but

660
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 2: Yale did win Game one by seven at home. What

661
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 2: do you see in this game?

662
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kai, I have a pen to win the IVY

663
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: future that I had buried. Thought it was dead and

664
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: gone a couple weeks ago. But now they've battled back

665
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: in the game. But the margins are so thin in

666
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 1: this league that they're also only a game up in

667
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: staying in the IVY playoff. Six teams clustered between seven

668
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: and three and five and five in this league, and

669
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: you need to get in that top four to make

670
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: the postseason event. This interesting matchup, Matt. I feel like

671
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: Yale can bully inside. Their big guys are really really good.

672
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: At the Jarvis Knowling group, there's shop blockers, there's physicality,

673
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: a bunch of lefties. It's almost like harder to match

674
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: up with because they're so disorienting with that. But Penn

675
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: as the best player on the floor. Dingle is fantastic

676
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: twenty point game scorer, and I actually kind of like

677
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: their complimentary weapons as well. George Smith's pretty solid, Jonah

678
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: Charles and I shooter. They're healthier than they've been in

679
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: the past. So I'm going to lean towards Penn, but

680
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: I don't feel confident about it, and I will not

681
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: be betting it.

682
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's profitely some of the fact that Jordan Dingle's

683
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 2: been playing his best ball late when they've had a

684
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 2: couple of lolls in the schedule where has had time

685
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: to rest. They had a week off between Cornell and

686
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 2: Harvard last game, and Dingle went bananas against Harvard. I

687
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 2: think you're trying to catch Penn on the first game

688
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 2: of the back to back spots. That's my stupid, sneaky

689
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 2: pen angle because they have so many injuries. Now getting healthier,

690
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: I think that helps him here again, that kind of

691
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 2: maybe potential revenge angle after they lost at Yale, and

692
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 2: obviously with the motivation you guys talked about. I do

693
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 2: like Penn the Red and Blue baby, yep, Land and

694
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 2: Penn as well. Here, folks, yeah, go red and blue,

695
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 2: Go red and blue. All right, onto the trash man

696
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 2: pick of the week, guys, I think I found a

697
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 2: pretty good one here.

698
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: The trash man pick of the week. I'm the trash man.

699
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 1: Just throw me the trash, your garbage, and you know it,

700
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: totally unreliable, undependable.

701
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 2: That's it.

702
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:44,719
Speaker 1: You've been told off.

703
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 2: How do you like that?

704
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: Good?

705
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 2: It's in the Big West. We go back to the

706
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 2: Big West. Cal State Bakersfield at cal Polly cal Polly

707
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 2: minus two for kim pum offensive average possession length how

708
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 2: fast teams play onto the offensive end. Bakersfield is three

709
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty ninth in the country, aka the fifth

710
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 2: slowest team in the land. Fourth slowest team excuse me,

711
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: Cal Poly three hundred and twenty eighth in that same

712
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: stat They also play slow offensively in terms of efficiency,

713
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 2: Bakersfield three hundred twenty second, cal Poly three hundred and

714
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 2: forty ninth. It's two slow teams. It's too bad offenses, Matt.

715
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 2: The projected total is one to eighteen. This qualifies as

716
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: a trash man pick of the week. What you got

717
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 2: or does it? Look at Cal State Bakerfield's last two games.

718
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 2: They exploded for one point point posession against Klstate Northridge

719
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 2: games ago, and then they put up sixty nine oh

720
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 2: and a loss to Long Beach Date. Now, in all

721
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 2: serious stints, this should be gross. I don't really understand

722
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 2: how KYL State Bakersfield scored in those games. I watched

723
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 2: them play a cople times this year. It's the most

724
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 2: it sets basket basketball back decades. So yeah, I'm not

725
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 2: watching this game. I kind of think bakers will actually

726
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 2: wins this.

727
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: One, so I will be betting the under. Kai. I

728
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: think this is a great undergame. Both teams, like you said,

729
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: slower offensively than they are defensively, and you can control

730
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: that more and way better defensively than theyre offensive I

731
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: think that all kind of manifests into a gross under,

732
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: inefficient and slow game, perfect for a trash man pick

733
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: of the Week.

734
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 2: Game one played sixty one possessions and had one hundred

735
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 2: and twelve points, So I would say you're on the

736
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 2: right track there, Jim with the under beautiful Love.

737
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: Thanks love to hear that.

738
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 2: All right, guys, spotlight section, We're going to talk about

739
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 2: the two blue bloods that are struggling because everyone is

740
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 2: talking about this in the public media space, so we

741
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 2: should get our own, our own takes and hear our

742
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 2: own cracks at it. I'm calling the bubble Bloods are.

743
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 2: What's the approach going forward for these two teams? From

744
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: a betting perspective, you have North Carolina and Kentucky. Both

745
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 2: teams right now are eleven seeds per bracket matrix. Kentucky

746
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: is the last team in UNC is the fourth to

747
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 2: last team in now fielding the sixty eight. A team

748
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 2: of very good bracketologist has Kentucky out of the field

749
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 2: currently and you and see playing in Dayton. So these

750
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 2: two teams are very much in date of missing the

751
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 2: dance would be almost inconceivable. Both teams are really poor

752
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 2: this season against the spread. Un C only twelve teams

753
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 2: are worse against the number this year. They're eight and

754
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 2: sixteen one and five against the spread their last six

755
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 2: Kentucky ten and fifteen against the spread. They had a

756
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 2: nice run of covers, but just two and three last five,

757
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 2: and they're hurt.

758
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: C j.

759
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 2: Fredericks Saviill Wheeler, both kind of dealing with injuries.

760
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: Jim.

761
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 2: Both teams have quite a bit of opportunities remaining in

762
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 2: terms of Q one Q two games, Kentucky a lot

763
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 2: more in the SEC. What is your approach going forward

764
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 2: with them from a betting perspective, keep fading bet on?

765
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: What do you think mostly fade? How the hell are

766
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 1: they going to win a Q one game? These two

767
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: combined are one in sixteen against Q one competition. UNC

768
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: o to nine Kentucky one and seven. For what they

769
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: brought back from Kentucky was a two seed last year,

770
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 1: brought back the player of the year, and UNC brought

771
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: back the four starters player of the year, and they

772
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: might not make the field. UNC brings back four starters

773
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: from a national finalist and might not make the field.

774
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: It's wild wow, Kai, especially circling the road spots for

775
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: UNC to fade them. They're one and six against the

776
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,719
Speaker 1: spread on the road. They are joyless watching them play basketball.

777
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: They had a little bit of fun against Clemson. You

778
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: could see like a little bit of spirit to him,

779
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 1: but they don't seem to love each other. Baycot looks

780
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: just so upset that he returned to school this year.

781
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: He loves UNC, but like he's playing with these guys

782
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: that just jacked terrible threes, not getting touches unless he

783
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: chases down an offensive rebound. It just feels like they've

784
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 1: they had a player's only meeting or something before Clemson

785
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: figured something out, and then it just immediately died, turned

786
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: around on a Monday and couldn't play against Miami. So yeah, Matt,

787
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: I'm I'm looking more to fade UNC, especially that at

788
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: NC State game. I don't think they compete on the road.

789
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: They're just a terrible road team.

790
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm more in like put pedal to

791
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 2: metal on fade UNC, where I like kind of easing

792
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 2: into the guest pedal on fading Kentucky. I wish as

793
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 2: a better I had Caleb Love's short term memory and

794
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: just on inhibited confidence where you know you missed seven

795
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 2: to row and you're coming down and firing the next shot,

796
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 2: the next open look you get. I wish I had that?

797
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: How much it's how much blame do we placed on

798
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: Hubert for allowing a lot to do a lot of blame.

799
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 2: He's not a good coach, Yeah, I agree with I

800
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 2: think I think he's I don't say he's an outright

801
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 2: bad coach. I don't think he's a great coach though. Yeah,

802
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 2: when big coach doesn't touch the ball, I know, multiple

803
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 2: possessions in a row and crunch time, that's a problem

804
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 2: in my opinion.

805
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:31,439
Speaker 1: The coach.

806
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 2: My theory is that he's just trying to really be

807
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 2: the Caleb's my guy and go to bad for his

808
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 2: guy and have his players back and let him play

809
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 2: how he is wired to play. But that's just at

810
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 2: the expense of your team's actual best player, which is

811
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 2: Mindo Baycot. So yeah'm looking to face. I mean, don't

812
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 2: we all agree it's gonna find out? Is this will

813
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 2: wind up in a both teams are in Dayton because

814
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 2: that's just makes the most sense for the ratings and

815
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,839
Speaker 2: money perspective, And it would be good if both teams

816
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,879
Speaker 2: made Yeah I hate that I minute, but yeah, I agree.

817
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 2: I want to see both teams played each other, yes, yeah, yeah, right,

818
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 2: let them play each other exactly, and then one of

819
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 2: them teams makes the Sweet sixteen to the Elite eight,

820
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 2: and there's a whole narrative on that as well. But

821
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 2: only only if my als and only if my Cougars

822
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 2: are in the field. Yes, I don't want them to

823
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:17,280
Speaker 2: take those spots.

824
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 1: So kay, it would be a Q one game for

825
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: both of them if they played a neutral site against

826
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: each other. They're both in the top fifty the net.

827
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: I don't know what would happen there. That's like how

828
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 1: does a stoppable force for some movable object workout. It's

829
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: a good question. Maybe they both just just quit.

830
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 2: They forfeit the game. So going forward, UNC three total

831
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 2: Q one slash Q two games remaining, Kentucky has five

832
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 2: of them, gen real quick. Do they make the field?

833
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 1: Yes or no? Both teams. I don't think UNC does.

834
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 1: I think Kentucky finds a way in the fact that

835
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: they want at Tennessee is enough of a it's capable

836
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: where I think they can win down the stretch a

837
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 1: little bit some of these games and manage their way in.

838
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 1: I just haven't seen it from UNC, Like zero to

839
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 1: nine versqu you and competition, I think you've got to

840
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: get one, and that would require being Virginia at home,

841
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: and I'm not sure they can do that or like

842
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: I said that at NC State game at a C state, yep,

843
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: I don't think UNC is going to get there. Kentucky

844
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 1: with those five chances, maybe you get Wheeler and Frederick

845
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: healthy and you steal two of those, and I think

846
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: that'd be enough for a big blue nation. But Matt,

847
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: your your doochie rivals maybe on the outside looking in, and.

848
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,880
Speaker 2: That makes me very happy. I feel like they're at

849
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 2: one in NC State, Like this is the one where

850
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 2: it's like coll on cee State.

851
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 1: This is it.

852
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 2: Just finish it, seal the deal, putting nil on the coffin.

853
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,240
Speaker 2: And that's the game where Caleb Love has the Clemson

854
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,720
Speaker 2: esque out of body seven of eleven from three Davis

855
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 2: is like four of ten from three bay Kai gets

856
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 2: twenty and twelve and they find a way to win

857
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 2: and they squeak in and there we see him in

858
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 2: Dayton Well said, all right, fellows, that does it for
